Nope. Unfortunately this lip will never happen.

Lexon is my favorite 09-10 lip.

Tom's lip is the closest to this lip you posted, but I heard there are fitment issues, check this out. Looks good to me though!

Sad that it won't go into production... I really like the 5 Axis.

I guess I may end up with the GFS split ones for '09-10.

my only issues with the GFX lip is that its merely held on by double sided tape. cars like mine which low to the ground and are used as a daily driver stand no chance.

Back when I was planing to get the 2010 IS350 I was hoping that Five Axis lip would be available or on a sport package, but guess not.

Really? The '06-'08 one goes right into your OEM mounting points, no tape required.

It's held on with a combination of tape, clips, and a bolt on each side.

really? sewell told me it was simply held on by double sided tape, which deterred me from purchasing it in the first place(along with the outrageous price)

The '09 lip that I installed had 3 clips along the bottom of the lip on each side, one bolt that requires you to drill into the side of the bumper (which I removed because I didn't want to drill a hole on the side of my bumper), and a strip of tape along the top of the lip. I also screwed some self tapping screws into the underside of the lip as well.
